To quote Ferris Bueller, "Nothing - wha - what do you mean nothing good? We've seen everything good. We've seen the whole city! We went to a museum, we saw priceless works of art! We ate pancreas!" (we didn't eat pancreas but we did have Ramen)
 |
| The "whole" city! |
 |
| Went to a museum |
 |
| Priceless work of art |
 |
| Not pancreas |
So to wrap up McKinney, we didn't do as much as we waned to do because it was really hot and we were far from public transit, but we did do a lot and had a great time doing it. We even got to catch up on some of the shows we love and I got to watch quite a bit of the World Series of Poker. Most importantly we got to spend time with family we haven't seen in a long time. We got to hang out with Sharon (Donna's Sister) and we got to know Erika (our niece) a lot better. We got to trade experiences. We showed them some of the things we love and they showed us some of the things they love. It was a cultural exchange! Next stop, Tulsa, OK. You can read about it here (kidding, I can't link to a place I haven't visited and a post I haven't done yet).
